36 <para>The <application>Apache Ant</application> package is a
37 <application>Java</application>-based build tool. In theory, it is kind of like
38 <command>make</command>, but without <command>make</command>'s wrinkles.
39 Ant is different. Instead of a model where it is extended with shell-based commands,
40 Ant is extended using <application>Java</application> classes. Instead of writing
41 shell commands, the configuration files are XML-based, calling out a target tree where
42 various tasks get executed. Each task is run by an object that implements a
43 particular task interface.</para>

86 <para>You may need additional libraries to satisfy the build
87 requirements of various packages installed using
88 <application>Apache Ant</application>. Review the table at
89 <ulink url="http://ant.apache.org/manual/install.html#librarydependencies"/>
90 for any prerequisite libraries you may need. One such library is the
91 <application>JUnit</application> testing framework library. Many Ant-installed
92 packages will use this library to perform the unit tests during the build
93 process. To install the JUnit library along with the
94 <application>Apache Ant</application> package, download it from
95 <ulink url="http://www.junit.org/"/>, unzip the distribution file (requires
96 <xref linkend="unzip"/>) and copy the <filename>junit.jar</filename> file
97 into the <filename class='directory'>lib</filename> subdirectory of the
98 <application>Apache Ant</application> source tree before beginning the
99 <application>Apache Ant</application> build.</para>

125 <filename class='directory'>/etc/ant</filename> to conform with
126 FHS guidelines. This command creates a symlink from the
127 configuration directory back to the installation directory as the package is
